I wonder why T Jones only had 20 mins. He was perfect 5 from 5 FGs and 1 from 1 from the charity stripe.
Only 1 rebound. Was getting rebounded all over and just stared whenever Howard tried to contest and another King player would snatch it up for the put back in front of him. Howard stared him down after a few times.
Do you guys realise that Asik and Lin were the starters last year and now they are leading the bench. Think about it. This is on top of DMo and Smith who occasionally started last year. This is how great the Rockets had become when our starters are now only bench players. It would only get better and better and I hope it all clicks before the Playoffs!
I personally have said multiple times that I thought he would be a very valuable player off the bench. But that was an insult to the crazies. People take pleasure in bashing Lin because his fans (not rockets fans mind you) would except nothing less than him starting and Harden deferring to him. It is my main motivation when I criticize him. Lin is a solid player but nothing more. That is not bashing or flaming or whatever, it is just the truth. But to end, dude is seriously playing terrible the last 2 weeks. The bashing is obviously excessive but doesnt mean its not deserved on some level.
No one gets upset when everyone gets on Garcia or Casspi for sucking it up. But suddenly when Lin sucks and people get mad "OH NOES. LOH!!!!"
Good win on to the next one, glad the bench guys got alot of PT at the end hopefully they can be better tomorrow (Hamilton looks good but let's not get too excited about him yet).
How often does any team have 25+ point wins? Anyhow, got a win, nobody serious injured. Good. Next game.
Man, can we talk about the win???? Or about how good Hamilton looked??? Or how about our best player getting better by the minute dropping 43 and 8 assists in 31 min???? Or the rockets having the best record since January? ??? The fact that all those happened less than 10 min ago and ppl are talking about how our 6th man played??? What's wrong with thus board???? This place used to be awesome, now it's a jermey Lin message board with rockets talk 2nd that's just wrong. CLUTCH please considere making changes around here for LOF and LOH their ruining the beauty of the website. When I found this place over 10 years ago it was awesome because I got to discuss my favorite team with people who shared the same passion as I. I want that back we have the first legit contender since Hakeem played and its getting ruined by alot of ppl that weren't around then. I was at the Galveston practices the parades. I want clutch city and were so close. We got Dwight looking better and better everyday and a potential hof top 5 sg of all time growing before our eyes. The future is bright and I want all my rockets fans to enjoy it but not like what I witnessed tonight in the garm.
